Dr. Pat Echolds and the staff of Rancho Niguel Animal Hospital help the Dedicated Animal Welfare Group (DAWG) and the Mission Viejo Animal Shelter save and better the lives of the endless number of cats and dogs that find themselves homeless and in need of care in our area. When I joined the DAWG Board, my eyes were opened to the dedication and devotion Dr. Echolds had shown over the years to animals who had no voice of their own. He has gone above and beyond to help and heal the animals in our area who were given up, thrown out, forgotten... Without the help of Dr. Echolds, DAWG and the Mission Viejo Shelter would not be able to afford, and give, the immediate and often costly treatments needed to save the lives of the animals, who through no choice of their own, are awaiting a second chance at our local shelter. When the work of Dr. Echolds was revealed to me, I immediately switched vets to ensure my animals would be shown the care and love received by the orphaned shelter pets. Our dogs greet the Rancho Niguel Animal Hospital staff as they would family members. Dr. Echolds is personable, accountable, and is actively involved with the animals in his care and their human parents. Please choose Dr. Pat Echolds, the best vet, so that we can show him the depth of our thanks.

Dugan, our great dane, had some pretty severe problems, which resulted in a daily vet visit for about 8 weeks. EVERYONE there was so wonderful in assisting me during this highly stressful time! They took good care of his arm, which needed a daily bandage change, but also took great care of him knowing that being at the vet would cause him a lot of stress. The vets, techs, and even front desk all now know him by name, and give him lots of love (and treats) every time we come in for routine visits. They are a walk in clinic with no appointments, which works really well for my chaotic schedule. I've never had to wait too long to see any doctor, and I always leave feeling that they've fully answered my questions. My dane is very skittish, and they know how to deal with him very well. I love that one of my favorite doctors and one of the techs also own danes, so I feel like my guy has people who understand the quirky problems danes can have. I can't say enough how great they are, and have recommended them to just about anybody who's asked. Their staff is friendly, and I love that I can go in with a silly question and not feel stupid asking. They genuinely seem to care about both their four legged patients AND their parents.
